INFORMATION RESOURCES
Glass on Metal
This is the official website of the enamellists magazine "Glass on Metal" and has many great resources, including some articles from past issues, workshops and classes
Enameling Society
The Enamellist Society, Inc. is a volunteer arts organization founded in 1987 for the purpose of promoting the art of enameling. The Society distributes a quarterly newsletter to its membership and has an on-line newsletter called FuseNews. It maintains a lending library of both enamel-related literature and images. The Society also grants money on a yearly basis to further the promotion and practice of the medium. See our Activities section for more information.
Vitreous Enamelling
This is teaching site that I have set up with all the information that I give my students when I teach at George Brown. I hope that it will be a reminder for them, and of some use as a resource for those of you who have been away from enamelling for a while. If you are very self directed it might help to guide you through some of the preliminary stages on your own. Feel free to contact me through this site with questions about enameling any time.
Grains of Glass
This is a new social networking sight set up by Trish White. It features profiles, pictures and articles by the members as well as a forum and blogs - all about enamelling! A social network is only as good as the level of participation of its members - so consider joining! It's free, fun and informative!
